    Hey guys, I just picked up a 355 spider about a month ago. Have the tonneau cover for it but it doesn't seem to fit completely. Seems extremely tight and broke a few of the snaps trying to fasten it down. Seems to me that the convertible top is sitting correctly when down. Could the tonneau leather have shrunk from engine/heat from the sun? If so, which after market covers have worked for you?

    Thanks in advance.

    Yes, it does shrink because it is leather after all. You will notice that the same shrinkage problem exists on your dash, and the passenger airbag.
